Whats the difference between these and stock LCA's? Is it helpful performance wise or strictly cosmetic?
stronger lighter and better looking.
typically you get new and/or poly bushings too.
haha why do people paint their cars? Sometimes you just do things to look better 8)
buuuuut bushings dont stregnthin the actual control arm, not to mention the fact that stock lca's combined weigh easily 4x's as much as the blox ones.
Thats cool. Just didn't know if there was something else to them that I didn't know about... I guess they would be helpful on the RT4wds also to stop some of the torsional stress when the rear wheels kick in.
Does anyone know of the shift linkage from a wag being different length's then the ones from ef hatch's or sedans? Never compared them before, but noticed today a small like quarter of an inch difference today.
Does that mean custom fab for b-series shift linkage? or do the hasport ones still fit?
So the sohc wagon days are done wit haha RIP SOHCness Monster
Spent today guttin the engine bay and interior so i can start preppin my car for the new paintjob :]
Tomorrow i'm gonna be doing ALOT of Dry-Icing on the inside of my car to get rid of all my nasty sound deadening Tar
So i'm gonna be droppin in a B-series for now so i have somethin to drive/show other then a Single cam haha
These are my OG mounts/first swap mounts EVER made that are goin on my B-series (Read the article on Place Racing Mounts in Honda Tuning if you dont know about em haha).
So today i started w/ the removal of the sound deadening tar.
Items needed: Dry ice, Aircraft Paint Remover, and a chisel and hammer.
Started out with freezing a section of the floor...
Then after u start to chisel away, it comes off in chunks like so...
After the chunks are off, there's still some tar left over.
Thats where the Aircraft Remover comes in...
Happy cuz i get to put in a FULL day tomorrow! But happy w/ the progress made today.
I also decided, fuck the B-Series and i'm gonna be puttin my K in my wag 8)
haha haaaaaaaaaaters. I'm puttin in a B right now cuz i need the wag running. If you wanna give me $2000 bucks more i'll put the K in right now? it'll only cost me a couple hundred to put in the B for now so i have a runnin car, so CHILLAX homies.
So I've been wanting to source a driver side mirror block off plate, but got tired of looking, so i just decided to fabricate my own. I had an extra driver side mirror, and disassembled it all till i got to the actual plate. Heres some of the work i've done so far. All surfaces still need to be sanded, but i think i'm gonna be happy with the outcome.
Started sanding my car today. I'm sanding all the way to the metal on the outside so i can start from scratch. Should be takin it to the booth really soon
this cars not gonna be daily driven and then with my rear view mirror i have, i dont have any blind spots haha
Not to mention i think it looks a 100x's better.
So i just got done with my dash removal. I had a couple burned wires in the harness since i got the car, so i've been wanting to replace it, and now that i'm gonna be painting my whole car, i figured this would be the perfect time to do. Heres the pics of my progress so far for today.
Gonna finish taking off the rest of the trim and keep sandin down.

ok cool, that makes sense if its not a daily driver!
I'm puttin in a b series for now so i have somethin to run/show. But i do have future plans for the k.
So started shaving the engine bay today. Filling in all unnecessary holes and getting rid of the useless rubber tar inside. I'll post up some pics tomorrow mornin when i have some light. I may be Shooting my engine bay tomorrow
